Why they chose this property
This log cabin sits on an original land grant from 1840. Modern features found in the home when it was purchased, are gradually being removed to take it back to it's original appearance at the period of construction in the 1800's. This has been a years long process for us. We also strive to protect and support the flora and fauna of the area. It is a wonderful retreat, steeped in history and surrounded by nature.
What makes this property unique
The cabin is very rustic. It will appeal to those familiar with camping. it is like camping with a roof over your head. you will encounter the same flora and fauna that you would if you were tent camping.
